FLAT BOTTOM BAGS

INNOVATIVE PACKAGING MARVEL USES LESS FILM BUT HAS SUPERIOR STRENGTH, STABILITY, AND COMMERCIAL MARKETING VALUE

A.K.A. “block bottom pouch” and “box bottom bag,” flat bottom bags offer unparalleled advantages for both your business and the environment. By using 15% less film while maximizing storage capacity, they not only reduce production energy and weight but also lower costs and minimize environmental impact.

Say goodbye to the need for outer cartons as the flat bottom bag eliminates that requirement, streamlining your operations and reducing expenses. This is made possible by the bag's unique lamination of materials, which replaces inner layers and optimizes space.

Choose custom printed flat bottom bags made just for you, with packaging features that create effective storage to preserve freshness and extend the shelf life of your premium products. Get peace of mind with professional, protective custom flexible packaging that delivers great value for you.

CHOOSE TO SUCCEED

The primary distinction between a quad-seal pouch and a box pouch lies in their bottom design. While quad-seal pouches have a fold-over seal, resulting in a non-flat bottom, the box pouch features a perfectly flat bottom.

This flat bottom provides stability throughout the product's lifespan, even during gradual consumption. In contrast, quad-seal pouches may become less stable as product quantity decreases, particularly for heavier items like pet food. To enhance stability, quad-seal pouches are often designed to lay flat.

Choose superior packaging performance and unmatched visual appeal—this bag is the ultimate fusion of the quad-seal bag and the classic stand-up pouch. Our time-honored press techniques and expertise work to actualize your packaging vision

CHOOSE TO BUILD A BEST-SELLING BRAND

Protect and preserve

Pouch Me’s bags’ vapor multi-barrier materials are low perm (<0.1 perm rating) and keep out light, moisture, and oxygen to safeguard against product quality degradation over time.

Airtight seals standardize product flavor, freshness, and aroma to make sure your customers receive the expected quality after storage and shipping.

Take control of form + function

Pouch Me’s wide selection of bag materials, styles, formats, and pouch accessories give you complete control over how you want your branded product to look like and perform in the market. Choose the exact custom printed stand up pouch material, shape, and size to get the exact results you are after.

Flat bottom bags and quad-seal pouches offer add-on customization options, but their gusset construction sets them apart. Quad-seal pouches use the same material for the gussets as the rest of the pouch, while flat bottom bags utilize two separate material webs. This distinct design enables brands to utilize transparent side gussets, allowing product visibility through windows, while choosing metallic or opaque materials for the remaining sections of this bag.

Choose packaging extensions to make retail display, opening and closing, and storing your products a lot easier:

Choose durable, spill-proof, reclosable zippers that keep contents fresh, giving users the power to reach for the package when they want to, sealing it conveniently when they do not fully consume the contents, creating a longer life span for your product. You can choose child-proof zippers for smell-proof requirements, pull-tab style zippers for high-speed filling environments.

Choose nifty tear-notches to make opening your packaging less cumbersome, eliminating the need for scissors or other tools. Almost all consumers expect an easy time interacting with custom packaging, and these precise slits give your custom packaging a big boost.

Choose different styles of hang holes to help you maximize your exposure in retail settings. These hang holes help you position your products strategically throughout any shop.

Choose clear windows if you want customers to preview your products, boosting their confidence in your product’s quality while creating a more enticing display. We can create the illusion of frosted glass windows by adding a matte laminate for less conspicuous viewing areas.

Choose a pressure relief valve to release gasses that may spoil products such as coffee and grains. In terms of marketing, valves can also release aroma, engaging your customers via scent.

Choose clean-cut ergonomic handles to add a more custom and premium packaging look while boosting convenience for your target customers. These are valuable add-ons especially for heavier products, so people have an easier time carrying and handling your product.

Choose to round sharp corners to create a professional, softer finished pouch outline that also prevents unforeseeable handling injuries.

Pouch Me's add-ons are not necessary but are big packaging boosters for professional presentation, customers' ease of use, and merchandise display.
